I just took off my passenger side rear door card to find a part number. What i see is 94223AG show up in the upper left (looking at the inside) and again mid-panel on the right side. Do you see the same on your right passenger rear door card?

Interested in rear door cards but need them to be 2005. Let us know the year

I had a similar issue on the car I just bought. Rattling from transmission tunnel when decelerating in any gear until it got below 2k rpm. No noise on acceleration or when in neutral. Turned out to be a loose bolt on the trans crossmember. The long horizontal piece closest to the front of the car. (Needs to be at 103 ft-lbs I believe) Found it by banging it w a rubber mallet. Made a clank of metal on metal.

Anyone removed this before and can provide insights? I saw a video on Briansmobile1 for a WRX and looks like you remove a-pillar covers then pull up but I am getting a lot of resistance where it is closest to the windshield. Thought I would ask before breaking something. trying to fix a vibration.

Crossed a milestone recently. Replaced rear main seal to celebrate. Also purchased a wagon. Need to get the sedan ready for sale.

I am a new owner of a wagon. (started w/ a sedan) On it i believe is an OEM sedan exhaust. It terminates a couple inches before the end of the bumper. I have the HKS Silent Hi-Power exhaust for the wagon i mistakenly purchased for the sedan. Looking to install this but apples-oranges when it comes to noise level vs stock.

Thanks for this! Gives me a check list. 1) check mounts 2) try different exhaust ( current setup is inside lip by a couple inches) 3) cargo Bay insulate 4) doors to make the radio sound better when I turn it up to drown out what doesn’t work i will keep this updated with results. All others feel free to share as well.

Nice. Thanks! Exhaust, headers and intake are OEM. Any major culprits on the bushings? All are upgraded. (Ignoring motor, trans and pitch stop - i need to check those) Sound deadening - is trying to get under carpet of the footwells low ROI?

I have a "new" legacy in the family and hoping to crowd source feedback on upgrades folks have made that negatively impacted cabin noise most - road or engine/transmission vibration. Basically looking to take it from a track focused to road focused. What are your experiences? I'm also looking at the Sound Deadening FAQ.

Looking forward to getting to know the wagon side of the Legacy affliction. Thanks for the time in prepping the car for the driver and all the background/walkthru. Really appreciate it Boxkita!

I snapped one of my torsion bars and purchased a new set to replace. Unfortunately it's not correct - trunk still slams and won't pop up when unlocked. Seeing if anyone w/ a 4th gen sedan can tell me the orientation of the sway bars or send a pick of where my setup is off. Pics below of my torsion bars today. Thanks in advance!

I had to get a random piece of silicone hose for my air intake. Shop in Portland actually stocked such things. https://rallitek.com/ I would call and ask to see if they have what you need and if they can ship it.

Mine does this too randomly. Following this thread.

This is the one I used. I started w a Cobb DP tied to stock exhaust then upgraded to 3” exhaust. Works a charm as long as your current donut gasket is in shape. You run into fueling and air issues before exhaust becomes a bottleneck.

You will need a harness or a lot of work on your own. Check out “legacy odds and ends” website. He makes great harnesses for this. I believe you will need a post face. Not sure about compat for your first question though. I have an ‘06. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

+1 favorite non-HP upgrade so far. Very practical Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I disagree. They should know their capabilities and have guided you elsewhere. If I was a GM of the shop I would want to know what my employees can/can’t do. Take the pics in w your story and give them the opportunity to make it right. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Education for me. These results look positive no? Isn’t >20% where you have an issue or is the concern cylinder doing its own thing? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Great point. Basically an oil change every 3k. 500 miles better than my current interval Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
